'Kasuri' reminds us of an enlarged Kasuri - an Japanese ikat-technique where the threads are dyed to create different patterns in a weave.

Braiding with rugs is well tested and when we experimented with braiding T-shirts rags we found that different braids form different patterns when placed next to each other. Different designs appear depending on how the braids are combined in colour and No. of strands (3-4-5-6-7-8...).

The rug is composed from a series of designs we created, braided in a strict colour scheme. It is made out of T-shirts donated by Myrorna (Salvation Army).

Colour, komposition, the shape and proportions of the rug, the scale of braids and thickness in rags opens up an infinity of design variations for us.
